I'm taking a cab across town to Mokdong, where one branch of the Seoul Immigration Office is located, so I can, at long last, re-renew my F4 visa—the final paperwork burden for this year (F4s are valid for three years). I've got all of my documents ready, plus some extra photos because I suspect they're going to give me a new ID card: my current one has no more room on the back to write validity dates (there's room for only four or five entries, and I'm maxed out). A new card will probably mean new photos. I hope the ones I bring will pass muster; some date back to January (professional photo taken for my US passport) while others date back to last year (probably from around the time of my heart attack—a bit before or a bit after; I can't remember). If I do need to get a new card, I might have to come by a few business days later to pick it up. Normally, when I renew the F4, everything is done on the spot. But needing a new card changes things. Anyway, I'm outta here in an hour; we'll see what happens.
Later in the day, I'll be meeting up with my buddy Charles, fresh from a trip to Scotland. There may be photos later. Stay tuned.
